Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Tinted Pressed Powder Review

Hey guys today I bring you the Tarte Smooth Operator Tinted Pressed Powder.
I've been searching for a pressed powder for a while that had a slight coverage, whilst providing some skin benefits. This product fit the bill.
So let's see what I thought about it. 

Product Description
This whisper-light mineral pressed powder allows skin to breathe while treating it with soothing vitamins and minerals.
This powder contains Skinvigorating™ ingredients vitamins A and E, antioxidants that fight free radical damage, and mineral pigments, known for soothing and softening properties.

The packaging is sleek and sturdy. It has the Amazon river print on the front, just like the loose smooth operator.
Similar to the Amazonian Clay blushes. On the back of the packaging there is a tiny hole, which you could stick a pin into and remove the pan from the packaging.
So you have the option to de-pot if you so please.

I have it in the shade Light.

This product feels smooth and silky to the touch. On top of that, it feels as if it has moisturizing properties to it. Which could be the vitamins and minerals it contains.
However, due to this it doesn't control oil very well. So dry skin ladies would definitely get along with this better.
Having said that, I still enjoy this product. It provides the lightest of coverage and so sets your foundation with a flawless finish. Furthermore, it does not accentuate any dry areas or settle into pores.
It doesn't kick up a dust storm either, which is a pro. Although, my preferred way of application is by using a beauty blender.

Overall, this is a nice product. Nothing amazing. I much prefer the loose smooth operator over this.
Though it is still useful, as it is compact and easy to just pop into your bag for on the go.
Dry skin ladies would best benefit from this product due to the moisturizing properties.

I rate this product a
7/10

  1. Just bought this 2 weeks ago in the translucent. I am a dry gal, so I appreciate any moisture I can get through a powder. I might try it in the light shade next time. I really enjoy your blog and you tube channel. I've really come to trust your opinion. Thanks & keep em coming! ����
